Nymphetamine
Her eyes are always so innocent, they hadn't known war, they haven't known loss or pain beyond scrapes and bruises. Nymphetamine wished he could keep that way always, but he knew someday Siba would understand pain, and loss. The little Pintabian would grow and have pain but he would protect that as long as possible. So when once again when her innocence gleamed from her eyes and her words fell in a way that made her statement more of a tentative question he laughed and lipped her mane softly. Her mother was first to reply, and sent her away so they could talk.
Nikita had been away from the Falls for a long time, Siba would no longer need her mother around all the time, and Nikita would leave soon. Nikita waited a moment before getting on with what she needed to discuss. Nymphetamine listened quietly, nodding a little as he took in her words, he waited until she finished before adding his piece. He smiled lightly as he spoke, hoping to ease her worries. "I'm sure it has been hard being away from Falls so long. I am so grateful for the time you gave me." Nymphetamine paused a moment, letting the sincerity of his words sink in. "Of course Siba would be welcomed, Killdare would be glad to have her and she would be trained in war or peace if she wanted. I would continue to keep an eye on her as well. The choice is with Siba of course, and I will visit no matter what she chooses." He waited a moment for Nikita to respond of ask questions before he asked the question he knew was on both their minds, "When will you leave? I'm sure you have a plan in mind, given the conversation we are having."
